My Beard Dilemma

I am missing a very vital piece of information here that will directly effect the outcome of my decision. Is the beard helping you get laid?

No arrangement of facial hair has ever helped me get laid.

You're just not doing it right:

I forgot to grow a beard over the winter. I'd been doing that for a couple of years but somehow it slipped my mind this past winter. So Rojohen must keep a full beard through summer by way of maintaining cosmic follicular balance.

I am tired of balancing the universe to make up for your lack of responsibility!
 
The universe will hate you if you don't. You don't want the universe to hate you, do you?

You know what you must do.
 
My beard, as of Friday. If I appear flushed, don't worry. It's just because I was totally wasted on Long Island Iced Teas and Jagerbombs. :p

Some guys are not 'beard kind of guys'. You are not one of those guys.

I think it looks AWESOME. And clearly, you know how to keep it up. So I say keep it. That would be my vote.

But then, I don't see beards as 'winter things'. If you really feel strongly about that, then the decision is already made, isn't it?
 
I want the universe to hate YOU.

Well, I think that's why he keeps the Mary Poppins avatar. Sort of as a talisman against the universe dumping any hatred on him.

I mean, what universe would dare to dump hatred on Mary Poppins, you know? Especially a Mary Poppins that is clearly giving the universe 'the evil eye'? :lol:

I know, I know. I think it looks awesome, too. :lol:

Everybody thinks it looks awesome.

I just get BORED!

Maybe I'll do something with it over my 4-day weekend for Easter. That way I can have it back my the time I go back to work.

It is a good-looking beard. And it doesn't look too thick and hot for the summer. So I'd keep it.

But then, I can't grow a decent beard to save my life; I just look scruffy. My wife hates the full beard, but likes the goatee I've been wearing for the past year or two, despite the greying.

I don't understand the boredom part -- I don't want to have to make any hard (or drastic!) decisions first thing in the morning. It's not generally a good idea... ;)

A couple of years ago, on a whim, I shaved my whole face. My daughters (then 8 & 10) had never seen me without at least a moustache. They teased me about how different I looked, and encouraged me to grow it back. I didn't like it either -- WHAT a babyface (not a good look for me). :wtf: Plus, it reminded me how much I HATE shaving my upper lip! So barring a drastic change of mind, the goatee is probably here for the long haul...
 
I have to keep my beard trimmed relatively short. The hair pattern shows a definite swing to the right when it's longer. Makes me look like I'm constantly walking in the wind...
 
I used to have a full beard, but a few years ago I started shaving my cheeks. This style doesn't seem to have an official name, though I've seen it called an "extended goatee," a "tailback," and even a "Hollywoodian." (?)

I think this works better with my glasses than a full beard. And especially now that I've started shaving my head again. Full beard + glasses + shaved head = fake beard.

Ok, stop fucking with me, man. You are myself from the future, aren't you. Admit it.

Seriously, that's what I've been thinking to do if I end up losing to much hair to keep it meaningful. Better a good shave than a comb-over, that's for sure.

By the way, nice suit. Love the tie-clip. The tie itself... well, let's not dwell on it. ;)
